If you have been searching for as really nice NZ new Compact Fairlane, the search is now over.......

This beautiful 65 was sold new in Rangiora by Palmer & Doak the then Ford dealers in North Canterbury on the 6th of April 1965, to rural Hawarden North Canterbury, and enjoyed a respected existence at the hands of its original owner until he reach the ripe old age of 85 years old! and after reluctantly selling the car in 1993, the second owner had the car for 6 mths before selling it to the third owner who kept it 6 weeks before selling it to the last owner in 1994,

The last owner commenced a sympathetic restoration soon after purchasing the very solid original old car, and the rust free super straight body was treated to a thorough going over by a well respected local tradesman, before heading off to be repainted in the original Gold Beige colour, and then returned to have all of the original trim and bright work refurbished and re fitted, bringing the car back to its show room period correct finish, the exterior trim and fittings are all original with no reproduction aftermarket parts used,

The interior seat coverings where all original and intact but showed their age, so after much research a new correct interior kit was sourced and fitted, while retaining the original unmarked dash pad and interior trimmings all of which are original to the car, and in exceptional condition,

The smooth and lively 289 V8 engine was rebuilt and bored .020 over, with the c4 auto trans being reconditioned at the same time, and once the suspension had been refurbished, the old Fairlane was back performing probably better than it did in 1965!

This lovely example retains its original ownership papers, fully recorded history, the original sales pouch satchel, and the original keys!

Some photos, receipts, and a cost log of the restoration also accompany this Fairlane,

This Fairlane 500 also participated in the 100th Anniversary of Ford celebrations in Rangiora a few years ago, and was the centre piece of the Palmer & Doak display,

A delightful example of a very rare car today, as most have long since disappeared,

NZ new, RHD, and well under the cost of restoring one today...

Inspection a must!
